FAQs
How does coaching work virtually?
Once we decide to work together, you'll receive an invitation to join TrainingPeaks. From there, all your workouts will be uploaded, so you'll never have any questions about what you need to accomplish. Once a workout is completed on your device, it will automatically upload to the platform. Coach Brian will then analyze all your data and provide feedback periodically.
Why should I get a coach over an app or pre-written plan?
Apps and plans give you workouts; Great Day gives you expertise. One-on-one coaching draws on several science-backed methodologies, tailored to your personal needs. With Great Day, we'll amplify your strengths, train your weaknesses, and provide the human support to ensure you love the process. That's something cookie-cutter plans and apps simply can't do.
Is Great Day right for me?
From first-time runners to seasoned marathoners, Great Day Coaching is for anyone who wants more from their running. Coach Brian specializes in helping runners of all levels achieve their goals, with a particular focus on the marathon and half-marathon distances and helping running fit into your life holistically. If you're ready to work hard and discover what you're truly capable of, Great Day Coaching is for you.
Why "Great Day"
Like all good ideas, the name "Great Day" came to me on a run. I was training for the NYC Marathon and was visualizing the perfect race day. I imagined lining up at the start feeling confident and hearing the announcer over the loud speaker say, "it's a great day for runners out there!" That's what I wanted for my athletes-- the feeling that their own personal greatness can be found on any given run along with the optimism to go after it.
